Received from ragdollpirate!!! I mentioned that a "surprise" box would be perfect- she could craft whatever she liked-and also at some point I said we were doing a HP tree this year so...

Required items wrapped:Hedwig Wreath! It's on the (inside) of the front door already.History of Magic ornaments and a bracelet from my Pinterest:Flourish and Blotts sign:The most amazing Ravenclaw tree skirt ever! along with extras:

I wish I could have gotten better pics, it is overcast today. The bracelet has a wand, the DH, and lightning bolt charms which look like it spells "Ian" (DS's name) and she made house ornaments for all of my kids. Two of them aren't shown because teenagers are slow at everything and they didn't make it in the picture. There is the cutest Harry ornament, round house ornaments, and bookmarks. Did you see that spectacular tree skirt?! Thank you! Thank you! Going to assemble Christmas tree now. YAY!!!!!!!

I am so glad you liked everything. I am also super stoked that the wreath made it in one piece I was SO worried about it hence the excessive "packing materials" lol. I had so much fun crafting for you and had I not run out of time you would have had more I just couldn't help myself. Also the wreath is what my friend told me I would be evil if I didn't send it I fell in love with it once it was made and I am not a fan of feathers lol.

BTW the Harry Ornament I got off your pinterest and the muggle ornament was based on a bracelet you had pinned as well lol.

Thanks for posting a better picture. Mine were taken in the sun room and they are still dark! Oh, and let me know if you decide to use your mousepad as a potholder because if it works, I'm going to make some more.

I did use it and it worked pretty good but, my mom said it could be a bit thicker for her hands cause she still felt a lot of heat through it. We just use it for getting cups outta the microwave that are a bit too warm for palm to cup/plate/bowl but, not so hot you need something super thick and heavy duty for it =)

Ok I think I caught up, and I also received today from MonstersUnderYourBed. She was a bit under the weather but sent a very thoughtful and adorable package. I love everything, especially my scarf and the twins. I also got a wand, Sirius' animagus, two PigmyPuffs, and the coolest hoop that is going up right away! Thank you Monster's, I appreciate all the thought and the fact that you crafted while sick. I appreciate it. <3

I received from Whistlefish today. She did and amazing job. I am so excited to share it with you.

For my favorite swap she made a Weasley's Wizard Wheezes Hoop.I love the color and the logo pops so well and even the frame matches.

For my favorite house She made me a Gryffindor lap blanket. What makes it extra perfect was after seeing the ravenclaw lap blanket I decided that was going to be the next thing I was going to have to make for myself but, then I received her package and there it was. Im cuddling under it now!

And I saved the best for last. I do a full size HP Christmas tree every year and she made me a whole set after my favorite class DADA. 3 chocolate ornaments in case of dementor attacks, Mad eye moody's eye, 3 mini DADA chalk boards unforgivable curses, 2 DADA textbooks, Scabbers, two cat plates from Umbridge's office and a Boggart chest with my biggest fear inside loosing control.up close shots

And as extra she made me my own wand and a Dobby sock. Also sent along a box of Bertie Botts Every flavor beans I forgot to take a pic.

Thank You so much for an amazing package and a wonderfull swap experience. Also Thanks Pinkleo and Jennieingram
